Séptimo Cocktail Bar Strengthens Miami’s Cocktail Culture with Elevated Mixology Experience
High above the vibrant streets of Brickell, a new establishment is set to transform Miami’s cocktail scene. On April 29, the Four Seasons Hotel Miami will debut Séptimo, an intimate cocktail bar located on the seventh floor. This venue aims to blend traditional mixology with modern creativity, creating a unique social retreat and nightlife destination that harmonizes craftsmanship, design, and ambiance.
A New Concept in Cocktail Culture
Séptimo is designed to celebrate the rituals of classic cocktail culture while presenting them through a contemporary lens. It aims to serve both Miami residents and visitors, providing a seamless extension of the Four Seasons experience. The bar will be a place for late-afternoon aperitifs, evening cocktails, and intimate gatherings, all within a sophisticated yet inviting atmosphere.
The design of Séptimo sets it apart from typical hotel bars. A polished central bar showcases premium spirits, while velvet drapery, rich textures, and ambient lighting contribute to an understated glamour. Artistic elements, including portraits of iconic figures like Marilyn Monroe and Clint Eastwood, evoke the elegance of mid-century Hollywood cocktail culture.
An Inviting Atmosphere
The atmosphere at Séptimo strikes a balance between intimacy and energy. Guests can enjoy comfortable table seating, whether they prefer a quiet drink or relaxed dining. A discreet DJ booth integrated into the space subtly enhances the mood, allowing music to complement conversation without overwhelming it. This creates a sophisticated hideaway that feels both transportive and familiar, situated above the city’s constant motion.
Haytham Said, General Manager of the hotel, emphasizes that the vision for Séptimo is to create a destination that feels elevated yet effortlessly approachable. He describes the bar as an escape designed for connection and discovery, where guests can unwind while enjoying meticulously crafted cocktails.
Curated Cocktail Program
At the core of Séptimo’s identity is its cocktail program, curated by acclaimed mixologist Jacopo Rosito. His philosophy draws inspiration from the Golden Age of bartending while incorporating innovative techniques and unexpected flavor combinations. Each cocktail is rooted in classic foundations but reimagined to reflect seasonal ingredients and Miami’s dynamic culinary culture.
Among the standout offerings is the Café Caribe, Séptimo’s unique take on the espresso martini. Presented tableside in a traditional cafetera and finished with aromatic smoke, this cocktail transforms the act of ordering into a sensory experience that highlights the bar’s commitment to experience-driven mixology.
Culinary Offerings
Beyond cocktails, the culinary program enhances Séptimo’s elevated identity. Curated by executive chef Edouard DePlus, the menu is designed to complement the drinks without overshadowing them. Guests can expect a thoughtful selection of sharables, refined bites, and indulgent comfort dishes that reflect a philosophy of classic inspiration paired with modern expression.
Highlights include Luana’s Polpette al Pomodoro, inspired by a family recipe from Rosito’s mother, adding a personal touch to the menu. The Séptimo Burger and Brioche Lobster Roll offer familiar indulgences, while lighter options such as Tuna Carpaccio provide sophistication. For a playful yet luxurious experience, dishes like Poulet and Caviar introduce an unexpected combination of comfort food and opulence.
The dining experience is further elevated by a classic tableside theater element, with Crêpes Suzette flambéed and prepared in front of guests, reinforcing the venue’s embrace of old-world hospitality rituals.
Evolving Experience
Séptimo will be open daily from mid-afternoon until midnight, designed to evolve throughout the evening. Early hours will encourage relaxed cocktails and conversation, while a rotating music program featuring DJs and live performances from Wednesday through Saturday will gradually introduce a livelier energy as night falls.
Located at 1435 Brickell Avenue, Séptimo also serves as an intimate setting for private events and special celebrations. Reservations and group bookings will allow guests to experience the bar’s atmosphere in curated formats that highlight both its culinary offerings and carefully designed ambiance.
Séptimo represents more than just a new bar for Miami; it reflects a broader revival of cocktail culture where craftsmanship, storytelling, and atmosphere intersect. By blending timeless techniques with contemporary flair, the venue invites guests to rediscover the pleasure of savoring a perfectly crafted drink.
